Abstract
Soccer is considered the most popular sport in the world. The game involves frequent agile maneuvers, such as rapid accelerations/decelerations and pivoting, and carries an inherent risk of high-speed collisions, which can lead to lower extremity injury. Knee and meniscus injuries can cause significant pain and disability, precluding participation in the sport. Understanding the diagnosis and management of meniscal injuries in soccer players is essential to the care of these athletes. This paper reviews meniscal anatomy, biomechanics, and mechanisms of injury; discusses the work-up, diagnosis, and management of meniscus injuries; and reports on rehabilitation, return to sport, and outcomes after meniscal injuries in soccer players.

Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy Review helps physicians digest the large volume of clinical literature in sports medicine and arthroscopy, identify the most important new developments, and apply new information effectively in clinical practice. Each issue is guest-edited by an acknowledged expert and focuses on a single topic or controversy. The Guest Editor invites the leading specialists on the topic to write review articles that highlight the most important advances. This unique format makes the journal more in-depth, authoritative, and practical than most publications in this field.
